Hot Toys 1/6 scale movie He-Man
>>11799517
>>11799517>>11799518I am not paying these prices It does look great - as far as prototypes go - but even for want a better looking head sculpt and a more realistic human body versus the class toy he-man body proportion, not worth what they want to charge for this crap I'm happy to wait for the porn art that Japanese school girls will soon festoon xshitter with inb4 takedown notices and also to wait for the eventual bootleg - unless the movie bombs.
Gosh DAMMITWill someone comment on the quality of the Motu food at Dennys?Mom says she will take me but I don't want to go unless the experience is as good as the movie.
>>11799532>my mom will take methis is /toy/ so I believe you. I enjoyed the food but I'm a slop king, so I'm biased.
200X whiplash is up on BBTS
>>11799532The real experience is in the bathroom afterwards.
>>11799562So it WILL be just as good as the movie
>>11799487I did. It's alright, basically cheaper alternatives to stock menu items. The burger is the best bang for your buck.
>>11799575Why's everyone blackpilling about the movie now? Did I miss something?
>>11799628What am I looking at here? I'm interested in skeletor in a suit.
>>11799644Hemania says it's an upcoming Chronicles movie figure but no other infoCalling it now: He-Man beats Skeletor by sending HIM to Earth and Skeletor ends up working in Adam's old HR jobIt'll be amazinh
>>11799644scene in the film where Adam in our world starts tripping out in a illusion where he thinks he is in his office again and his boss becomes that and the whole office melts into Snake Mountain.
Celebrate the masculinity of He-man by consuming a ton of sugar and soi.
>>11799667Imagine feeding these to Madam Razz while she strokes your cawk.
>>11799667>a half dozen only gives you three movie donuts to keep costs lownew levels of greed, I tell you what.
>>11799692>Donut selection utilizes donut reuse to avoid the costs of making new donutsTruly living up to the spirit of MotU

>>11799654We've all been there.
>>11799667>I HAD the power!
>>11799692Yeah, it's lame but I know I prefer a traditional doughnut so maybe it's for the old guys with high blood pressure like me. >11799700Kek. Nice work.
>>11799628I'll buy this for Panthor cat but don't know what I'll do with the figure.
>>11799700Ok I laughed.
Slime He-Man Slime Beast ManTwo BadOctaviaThe witch
>>11799844fucking preach
>>11799833Not just Slime He-man but Slime BATTLE ARMOR He-man for some reason. Maybe the removable armor from MotWWEU line and not the gimmick chest?
>>11799833Sketch series Octavia? I'd take, but I also want CC version. The back has a mix of vintage and CC figs with furry Grizzlor diving right into the slime.
>>11799856I think releasing both is the best option so everyone is happy.
>>11799833>Mattel finally release vintage origins Two-Bad>It's the slimed translucent version>It's part of a three pack exclusive with slimed He-Man and Beast Man>It's Walmart-Con Exclusive
>>11799844I WANT to care, I really do but it's just missing something. Idk, I guess if I just grab the figures and read the comics maybe then I'll be able to buy in. But, that's a lot of figures to buy just to see if I like the figures if that makes any sense. I guess what I'm babbling about is a real interest in a new side of motu, but idk if he ro/prince grey are the guys I want to follow.
>Evil Pit of Gruesome OozeMattel with that tease.
>>11799864Dont worry. If that happens I will spam Mattel with so much AI Raz porn Trump will have to build 50 data centers and drain the Great Lakes.
>>11799628Is this a spoiler for a scene?
I havent seen a modern hollywood movie in theaters in so long its actually insane. Does this shit come out digitally close to the theater release date or do I have to wait 3 months like I used to before.
Dare is better than Hero by a huge fucking margin and there's a reason they didnt release those toys.
>>11799833Geez mattel, don't tease us with everything with want in one image
>>11799875Thrilled that Snake Lair failing the first time reaction at SDCC got people asking for Fright Zone and Slime Pit in the follow-up survey
>>11799667Onions based donuts? What the fuck?
>>11799907>everything with want in one imageLet's not get too ahead of ourselves ... The side panel will have to have Wrap Trap and Dylamug for it to be EVERYTHING we want
>>11799628BASED
>>11799894Just go to the theater and stop being a fag
>>11799894Why not try being normal for once?
>>11799967>try being normal for once>Anon's face when
>>11800026Now Lyn and make her barefoot
>>11799734>>11800026Upvoted XDDDDD
>>11800026Now. >>11800027
>>11799895Agreed. I've made many a blogposts about just this. Dare would have been a perfect fit to send into space for NA. And He-Ro sucks, Eldor is boring...Grey is the laziest character ever.
>>11799628Pimp skeletor
>>11799628The hood shape looks like the kid's toy Skeletor mask that's out right now so this could be based on an actual scene or at the very least it's referencing the toy mask.
>>11799628I know it’s a collar and tie but it looks like battle armor underneath
Will nano figures catch on?
>>11800027Apple, pear, or Venus physique?>>11800103No because they look like they were 3D printed
>>11800103I don't hate it. It gives these sets kind of a Mighty Max feel. But I dislike that it replaces the standard Mega Construx figures as I was intently collecting that line and would have been ecstatic to get movie versions of those figures. So it's maybe not for me, but I can see why it might appeal to people.
>>11800103let's just say that if these had proper minifigs that I would've pre-ordered every set day one.
>>11800103I can't see anyone buying these unless they're on deep clearance. I've seen better cake toppers at Dollar Tree.
>>11800155Yeah this thing is a fucking joke when you look at the mega grayskull
>>11800113>I dislike that it replaces the standard Mega Construx figures>>11800149>if these had proper minifigsWe will never see Mega Construx figures again because Mattel doesn't want them stealing the spotlight from their Mighty Masters line.
>>11800164Yeah I'm glad I got the whole line with a few extras minus the exclusive battle bones back when it was all easy to get. Never going to see anything cool like this again. Mattel really dropped the ball on this line.
>>11800103They’re an in house Lego alternative that’s significantly cheaper. This is for build fags. Not boomers.
>>11800171Mighty masters for playable setsBrick shop for build fagsIt’s that shrimple
>>11800196>Motu .... not pandering to boomers. Escewing your core audience always pays off; historically speaking
>>11800198Boomers get mighty mastersLegos for millennials
>>11800198>>11800199See core and chronicles for millennials and origins for boomsThey aren’t snuffing anyone
>>11800199>>11800201
>>11800203It has so far for core. Check any retail site for the number of sales against chronicles and origins. There’s a reason all the origins are exclusive now. MotU is finding the next generation as it should while tucking the boomers into their deathbed.
>>11800164>stealing the spotlight from their Mighty Masters line.If this was true then give the same articulation to those mighty masters. Add a ball peg at the foot and a ball peg or cut at the wrist, and I'd collect them all. They're still cool but just don't do enough for me to want more than maybe a couple. Kinda like a better, smaller version of Hasbro's ActionVerse.
>>11800212These are perfect boomer bait. I’m into them because I have a deep appreciation of hemans legacy for toys in general but don’t want to pay an arm and a leg for an original collection. These will pair nicely with my books.
>>11800214They should really have toys at checkout counters not just candy. 5 below’s whole business model is a store of impulse buys imagine a cutout for that at someplace like Walmart just remove the magazines nobody buys.
Slime Pit has a lightup pit base, but the slime comes in a bag. No classic slime container
>>11800233I'm sure someone will 3D print one
>>11800218Walmart does tend to have a few toys by the checkout, mostly Mario, Sonic, and a few Disney things and then some candys that come with some bonus like kinder eggs
>>11800250Those tend to be in their own sections now. Less near every register
>>11800198to be fair, there is tons of boomer products, and they are expecting the movie to get a new public....if that will happen, probably not.
>>11799833>>11799856I just noticed something...Octavia has what looks like notches on the back of her head....is that a helmet? I've spent years thinking she had a weird haircut, but is it actually a weird helmet instead?Also, looking at the art and thinking about toy construction...the tentacles are not on the back, but come out where the arms do. Do you think she's going to have a normal torso with a "tentacle adaptor" piece that plugs into the shoulder socket and then her normal arms plug into the adaptor? Sorta like how Slither's skirt adaptor works for her tail?
since masters of the wwe is coming back, I'm looking to the old waves for any gems I missed.Rattlesnake Jake has that awful classics armor and Undertaker looks kinda goofy, but I definitely missed out on The Rock so I nabbed him. Anyone else miss that line? It was a weird era when we only had a couple waves of vintage origins and a bunch of random wrestlers with classics gear.
>Karg played by a guy named "Hung Dong"The jokes will just write themselves
>>11800646Will the figure have the larger ThunderCats He-man loincloth?
Fright Pits are already shipped to people. Where are all the review videos trying to get on top of the algorithms for views?
>>11800615It's what led me to this general. I've wanted to sell my collection but it never worked out, so I'll add to it instead. I'd like a chance at a gitd undertaker, I left him behind during the covid days so maybe another fan could have a chance.
>>11800615I wished I had picked up brand new day faces. Wasn't familiar with the wreslter so I passed but now Im looking at it as a figure and damen it looks fun. Also faker Cena in translucent blue. I got most everyone else except for the Snake Mountain Ring that never hit shelves and didn't last long online. Must have been part of the shipping containers that got lost around the time it was releasing. I wanted that Hulk in armor. Settled for Super Stars Hulk.
does anyone have a way to translate the eternian text? the protein powder came with some
>>11800985Unfinished. I’m missing the B and C from what I’ve seen available
>>11800985
>>11800985>>11800997>>11801006Well fuck me for making my own alphabet where’d you find this?
>>11801014It was in the swag bags at the premier
BIG CUMS
>>11801033Be a good starter base to convert into Skeletor Troopers from '87 as well
>>11801033Looks ass with the grey on the gauntlets and belt. Great if it were all black.
>>11800026KEK
>>11801033Please overproduce the shit out of these Mattel so the end up at ROSS and DDs. I need 16 of them.
>>11801033https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-HjXtNhKWl4Mr Home Arcade reviewed it now.>>118011792nd. I'll buy 4 or 5 even before Ross army building every single one I find
>>11801014Thank you Anon, that's awesome. Really cool anything these days has even a hint of sovl.
I'm going to the movie Wednesday night. I am unstoppable!
>>11801225same here, and then I'm opening a bunch of toys. spoilers dont work on /toy/ so be careful discussing the film with me next week.
>>11801006
>>11801228If someone is on here the 8th and still hasn’t seen the movie that’s on them.
>>11801033Where are these showing up at?Think I want to get two
>>11801335I believe someone got it at the Mattel physical store
>>11801310Why the fuck would anyone want to watch yet another White Male get lectured about his Whiteness and "Toxic Masculinity"? I'm sure plenty of you retards will be consoooming the goyslop though. IDGAF.
>>11801361Just shut the fuck up retard. You keep trying to well poison and nobody here is going for it. Faggot.
I hope movie Roboto's voice actress is mildly condescending towards MAA and british-sounding
It's crazy how hard mattel is going on 200x He-Man figs. All new sculpts for every release. I have a feeling though that it's gonna be ROSS fodder. None of the stores have stock anything past wave 1 and movie stuff is already taking over the peg space. Can this line last long enough for me to get what I want from the 200x line, those fancy Snake Men, Count Morzo, and the Faceless One?
I can't stop thinking about getting my tongue on Skeletor's donut
>>11801607It'd be nice if we could get snakemen repaints of all these guys to homage the original line but I recognize what a longshot that is.Man I still wish Thundercats used the original origins body.
Oof, mattel designers need to take a class in color theory. This just aint working. I thought it was the blue, buts it's that neon red orange that's throwing it off.
>>11801713eh, he pops. I kinda like this over black... I'm sure they had prototypes in tons of colors and arrived at this one as the best option.
>>11801603It’s not. It sounds just like a robotic version of Wig. She almost comes across as that bitch robot from Solo.
>>11801663SKELETONS TONGUE MY ANUS
>>11801851Good thing she dies
>>11801713Nah the red is fine, blue should be darker like Mantenna.
>>11801713It doesn't help that his stretch-block parts are all red, breaking pattern from the parts they stretch from.
>>11801713Well I think he's hella tight.
>>11801972Yum
>>11802089But then you have to buy McFartland crap.
>>11802174Slime on?
>>11802116>oh no it doesn't scale with muh Mousevel Legends!!!!!!lol
>>11802177Oh snap!
>>11801713Looks good to me. I'd get it if I was collecting Origins.>>11802089More or less what a Chronicles one will look like I guess.
>>11802193also on sketch manefaces art. Club Grayskull release soon? need something to release with all unique sculpting before vintage twobad.
>>11802174Guys, this box art is giving me a mighty need for a Slime He-Man/Beast Man/Buzz-Off 3 pack
I'm just gonna say it, as unlikely as it is...if ALL the teases on the Slime Pit box were to get unveiled at SDCC, this would be the best showing from Mattel since the year they showed off Eternia
>>11802208>>11802177>>11802174Mattel please fucking make the evil robot and slime cum buzz-off I would shit myself
>>11802201Well, you know me, if we're gonna get a horde robot with all new tooling, I'd rather get my boy Dylamug...but I wouldn't turn down an Evil Robot
Im getting really sick of the variants and running changes in these figures.
>>11802223I’m not upset. It’s truly an unintentional thing it seems vs an intentional chase variant. If this is something that continues past the movie figures then by all means grab the pitchfork and torches.
>>11802252This has pushed me into picking up the previous releases. God I hope we get 200x greyskull or the movie greyskull is big enough.
>>11802223So wait, did they change the blue of the figure, too?
>US MC calendar says there's a drop on June 26th>UK and German calendars say 22nd AND 26th has drops>Aus calendar says neither of those, it's June 19thSo, yeah. We're getting stuff but God knows how many or what dates
>>11802223Oh man that one is way better. Kinda pissed I have the one missing teeth.
>>11802264Oh snap a must pick up
>>11802223>>11802378Just buy it, swap the head, return as defective. My light blue has perfect teeth so it wasn't like all of them had the issue
>>11802386The problem is retail sucks where I live and rarely stocks motu these days so I am forced to buy on Amazon or bbts and I dont get to see if they have the better head
>>11801001>>11800999>>11800998These look really cool. So much has changed in the last few years. I cant wrap my head around chinese third party MOTU toys.
>>11802516
>>11802518
>>11802519Still waiting for this to go up on Amazon finally just to get the castle
>>11802533Oh fuck it’ll look nice with mighty masters
>>11802174>>11802177>the packet of slime comes in a bag instead of a barrelthat's...disappointinglike where are you supposed to store it when not in use??
>>11802597Just use one of your cleaned out cum jars anon
>>11802600bold of you to assume I use jars
>>11802601
>>11802597does it come with batteries installed?
>>11802622No
>>11802252>B>>11802264>>11802266>>11802267>>11802268Please dont be AI. I want to collect them all
>>11802597Isn't bad resealable?
>>11802597The way they changed the name makes me wonder if they can't use the word slime anymore for some reason.
>>11802597Slime packet and not cool container like the original.That's really lame
>>11802597>Slime comes in bagsThe Fright Zone must be in Canada
>>11802692Now I want a hockey themed hordesman
>>11802699Puck-Stor, sinister slashing skater! With H-E Double Hockey Sticks and Menacing Maple Syrup Jug!
>>11802264>SorceressI can't believe she's finally getting a proper figure. She was easily one of my most favorite redesigns in 200X and I was quietly wishing for this.
>>11802223Ah damn it, I just knew it. I quickly noticed this on mine and was wondering if everyone else had the same QC issue. >>11798220
If Mattel said they were going to rerelease the entirety of the heroes again as repaints, which would you pick as the option you'd most want to buy?>Faker repaints>Slime zombie repaints>Anti-Eternian repaints
>>11802774>Minicomic pink Teela & Sorceress, Ram Man, Sy-Klone, Buzz-Off>Faker She-Ra>Slime'd Teela, He-Man, Roboto>Nudist She-Ra>Filmation crystalized Man-at-Arms (fully transparent figure with glitter added)>Alien Xenomorph-inspired Man-E-Faces
>>11802300The blue on the new one does indeed look to be deeper and more saturated. You can even see it on the neck in the closeup shots.
>>11802774
>>11799618they are just VERY jealousas girls sometimes get - it's all that insecurity bred into 'em
>>11802774Years ago I kept suggesting turning AE into MOTU's equivalent to Shattered Glass for this purpose. I guess the Faker option is there but Skeletor's got way too many mooks as is. That said you might aswell do all three just to keep people on their toes.>>11802780This guy gets it.
>>11802683Im still annoyed they havent thought to release motu minifigures in vintage slime barrels
>find fixed Skeletor at Target>paint is atrocious>black spots all over skullDamnit, damnit
I really like him
>>11802597Get some MEGA construx Alien slime eggs. Or cheaper options ar the Jurassic park slime eggs.
>>11803228It's a simple thing but it's fun.
does anyone else have the talking Skeletor mask...? the voice is totally different from the final Skeletor voice in the film, it almost sounds like Jared, too.
>>11802683>if they can't use the word slime anymore for some reason.Oh they definitely lost the TM for Slime. I forget if it was common usage argument (for which Band-Aids still fights for decades later) or simply not renewed in a timely fashion. I'd say the latter because otherwise they'd still use "Slime" as a name.>>11802692>The Fright Zone must be in CanadaFuckin' Cannuks!>>11802774I would buy every Slime figure. I would probably buy every Anti-Eternia figure. Not as hardcore about Fakers but >>11802824 makes them look tempting.>>11803228He's a thing of beauty
>Thundercats Skeletor still appears at Ross>Cartoon Collection goes direct to Ross too>tons of Masterverse stock aswellWhat are the chances of the Transformers and later Thundercats waves showing up there too?
>>11803583Transformers are hitting Amazon
>>11799517More like He-Boy amirite?
>>11803585Oh sweet!>He-Prime is 30 bucksFUCK
>>11803583Panthorman and recolor Panthro, LionO are already hitting ROSS. Been trying to find Panthorman for two weeks. Sketch 2 packs and He-man also hitting ROSS so the TF collabs are surely to get dumped as well. Most targets got rid of all their stock by pricing them below $10 so good luck. You might still find them instore.
>>11803594I hate them break up cases at my spread out Ross stores because mine only had Panthorman. Picked the best of the two to customize later.
>>11803594I missed the target clearances. The stores near me only had stockpiles of scarescream left. Likewise my ROSS stores have been barren. Nothong but ToG Clamp Champ and Cartoon Collection cast offs.
With Masterverse I seriously realize how it didn't had sny expectations compared to Origins. It died and I don't see people complaining about all the figures that never got done.Most of sublines died so soon, no one ever expected them to get finished. And no one thought that Vintage or New Eternia actually will finish vintage lineup.I think the biggest disappointment was lack of snake men and maybe movie versions of MAA and Trela.
>>11803874At least for me, it was because they were so hard to get, and the Chronicles figures are just better, so it's (so far) brighter times ahead. I'm sure if I was a completionist I'd be disappointed, but I didn't have a chance to get so many of the ones I thought looked really good, but at the same time the figures weren't good enough to pay scalped prices for.
>>11803874Crossing my fingers this doesn't happen with 200x. I've only just started getting into the line this past month but I am ready and willing to go all in.If nothing else just let it last long enough for Marzo.ps. Mer-Man is fantastic.
>>11803907The 200x line makes zero sense when you think about it. They must’ve sculpted almost everything before even starting production so they could crank everything out to avoid the line abruptly ending before getting everything. The amount of figures we’ve gotten in less than a year is crazy.
Reposting because simi relevant All of chronicles gear including boots on 200x heman
>>11803926Bracers fix monke arms
>>11803925Yeah it’s crazy how much product Mattel have churned out in such a short time. Unless I'm mistaken it's going to be 7 wave in the space of a year? That’s like a Marvel Legends level release schedule.I’ve only just gotten back into MOTU but I take it that isn’t typical of MOTU lines?
>>11803965>>11803925I was sleeping on it but 200X is arguably the best iteration of MOTU, so, fuck it. I also recently went all in on them. Excited for Mer-Man.
Out of all the playset art, I think this one would make for the coolest desktop wallpaper
>>11804109Too much negative space

>>11804159Fair point. Party on.
>>11803907This is my fav Merman after LoP
So Mattel's DC line is hitting stores. So long shitfarlane!It's good odds we get a 5.5 DC line next year, so, is anyone planning on getting this batmobile? I'd like to know if it can sit a 5.5
>>11804506How about you fuck off out of this thread?
>>11804519no, anon, we're pretty chill about these questions and vehicles are a big part of the scale.
>>11804545No, fuck capeshit, get back to your filthy containment thread and wallow in the mcfarlan stench
>>11804549I don't collect mcfarlane lol
>>11804553I didn't say you did, I told you to get back to your containment thread and wallow in it. Admitting you've got ESL reading comprehension on top of being a dcuck is not the gotcha moment you thought it was
>>11804519>>11804549Report this faggot for trolling before he can ruin these threads
>>11804506I don’t think an origins style figure can fit the seat it’d be too wide.
>>11804109Buzz, buzzzzz....
>>11804573Shame that. I'm spoiled with origins vehicles being roomy as shit for specifically masterverse and thusly every other 6"-7" line.
>>11804574All brand new parts is too good for us, but it looks great as a render. Slime He-Man is still my favorite.
>>11804596I could take 3 slime guys at most. Zodac, Buzz-Off, and He-Man were in that one minicomic... and that was kino. The Cosmic Enforcer being slimed also raises a lot of questions- is he immune and just pretending? did someone get the drop on him? can he use all his cosmic power while slimed?

>>11803874I think most just never expected it to go anywhere, it was unpopular from the start and took years to start making versions of the characters people even like. And the figures themselves still have issues they just can’t fix like the proportions and joint stiffness. If origins didn’t stick the landing as hard as it did initially most collectors probably would have given up on it too.
>>11804109Should the slimed heman have the BA Armor like the art or just the standard He-Man? I mean they could pull the BA armor they used for MOTWWE to have it both ways I guess.
>>11804958No. Concept Stratos is the feather collar version we saw in the minicomics.If you don't like normal Stratos, sketchbook version won't save him for you.
>>11805273That's even worse than the real Stratos. There was never any saving him...
Origins Skelly boi
and Teela with manbun.
Missing Beast Man and Skel Knight.
>>11805417Beast Man was MC and these catalogs have always been for retail
>>11805155I figured they were just going to push the BA mold since it would permit them the chance to double dip on a vintage slime pit he-man down the road. Having said as much is anyone else surprised by how infrequently they use Faker? He was in origins early on, then popped up in masterverse twice, but he hasnt showed up since. Even Slaker was more of a turtle than a Faker. It'd be cool to see them give Faker the masterverse AE Heman treatment, and prioritize a fresh new mold for him.
>>11805475>have always been for retailconfirmed, Skel Knights are Walmart Con Exclusives like Horde Prime Trooper and Ghost Snakemen.
>>11805403I like how that looks. Really fits the style.>>11805406Heavy on the Man
>>11805273Isn't the feather collar essentially with Vultak?>>11805155Hopefully the removable armor which isn't my favorite but easier to get classic slime He-man if they included a harness as well. I love that action gimmick, though. I can fuck around with that all day.>>11805406Barely changed from Core 2.0. Maybe the gear is more pronounced on the sculpt.
>>11805667Looks like the leg gear and top are overlays onto the cartoon collection body (dat ass)
>>11805155Stop with the AI garbage. We have REAL toys to talk about, not your shit.
this movie is going to be a sleeper hit. you all need to do your part and tell people it's good.
>>11805704Helps that it has zero competition in the action genre
after I see the movie Wednesday night I will be building Eternia and eating some cake, never kill yourself
>>11805711You're saying this a week after star wars came out and you're completely correct!
>>11805757Tee hee
>>11805704I'm really hoping its good. I may go see it a few times if it is. Going on Thursday since thats the first showing in my area
>>11805780That Eternia score has me pretty pumped.
If anyone is curious
>>11805790We're not. Keep it in your shit thread
>>11805757It wouldn't have mattered if mando came out the same week as He-man, the movie tanked because its a dead brand and nothing will ever revive it.>>11805790Bleach, ammonia, bathtub, don't fuck this up anon
>>11805790Meh for DC Core 6.5". Mattel should be doing Core 5.5" DC and 6.5" Chronicles style. Select figures in Origins to feed into the MOTU Origins and WWE Superstars/ MotWWEU (Origins) lines. Superman, Batman, WW, GL, Flash, Luthor, Grundy (Deluxe), Joker, Reverse Flash, Artemis, Ivy, Harley, Catwoman, Clayface (Deluxe)
>>11805821We’re going to get origins style too anon
>>11805822>>11805821Origins DC is the only DC I'll ever buy... 2027 is when I hope to see it.
>>11805938Heh
>>11805790Can they swap heads?
>>11805938
>>11805746>he even found the gummiesI kneel
>>11803926200X silver Gauntlets come off?
I won a spot to a special showing of the movie tonight in NYC. There was a bag on each seat with a figure inside, I got Skeletor. I was sitting next to a family, Dad got He-Man, Mom got a skel-knight, and the daughter, a young girl in a She-Ra cosplay (real She-Ra, not netflix) got Skeletor. It was supposed to start around 7, but it was actually about 7:40 when first mattel's ceo came out and gave a corpospeak about brands, then Travis Knight came out and gave a moreso human speech about his childhood appreciation for MotU and making the movie, then they brought out the actresses for Sorceress, Evil-Lyn and Teela, and then the actor for He-Man for clapping and THEN started the movie.The movie was great! Extremely true to MotU lore. I didn't take out my watch but the total earth screentime can't have been more than 15-20 minutes, and that's including the time with Teela and Beast Man present. It was mostly heartfelt, but there were occasional bits of ironic millennial style writing here and there. On the whole it was good, serious when it needed to be, funny, emotional. I really hope it kicks ass at the box office.I don't want to drop major spoilers, especially when /toy/ has no spoilers, so just some small things>no mention of or reference to Keldor at all, nothing>Skeletor was fantastic, very serious threat, humor came from his hamminess and frustration with his minions>like three credit scenes (major bombshell there, really hoping for a sequel) plus a post credit one>Beast Man doesn't speak>best fight was probably He-Man vs Goat Man, Tri-Klops, Karg, Spikor, and Skel-knights>Dolph Lundgren has a very cute cameoGo see the movie, have a good time.
>>11806197Congrats, anon.
>>11805667Well need higher quality pics of both to fully compare faces and such but isn't she showing s bit more skin?
>>11806197Throw random spoiler that sounds completely nonsensical without context.
>>11806261Detachable gear is always cool but I don't think Mattel will ever adapt a certain item in Man-at-Arms gear in this movie.
OH NO NO NO NO
>>11806542>criticsThey haven't been relevant since early 2000s.
>>11806197Did they play 'What's Up' in the movie?
>>11806592Yes
>>11806542>it's impossible to talk about this movie with normies without them bringing up jared>a fucking 51 on metacritic
>>11806542>>11806630There's still a chance it could be a moderate success despite bombing with critics
>>11806704It also has a 74 with critics on rotten tomatoes. Just have to wait and see.
>>11806714The messaging around the film is very mixed. We wont know what the public consensus is until friday at the earliest. Dont count He-man out just yet.
>>11806542Great sign, the worse critics pan a summer blockbuster the better it is. These guys jerk off over Criterion, Cannes award winner shit, etc.
>>11806542Nyaaa I knew I shouldn't have sent Blast Attack to review the movie! Now its going to bomb!
>>11806542They race swapped many of the characters to please minorities... they fully clothed the female characters to not offend the lesbians... they even made He-Man a pretty boy to please the homosexual men.... and they still didn't like it.I don't know... maybe the movie just isn't good.
Mattel testing the waters for hyper colored Jurassic Dinos. Won't be long for MOTU dinos bros.
>>11806900Thats not why they do it you worm
>>11806900Schizo post
>>11806908Thanks for posting this here, I never check the JP thread but I'm going to need to be on the lookout for this.
>>11806908oh my god, Peaches grew up! Fuck yes, I will buy one when it is released.
>>11806908Nice!!! There's just been too many art teases to not get them right?I'll take some funky colored dinosaurs either way
>>11807008You'd think with the turn to pre eternia that dinos would be a obvious choice but I've sat here for what, six years maybe and I still ain't got a dinosaur. Dino men would be awesome to replace the snake men
>>11806908For the love of god mattel make the fucking Ultimasaurus already
>>11806933>>11806939she's responding to herself
>>11803926Nah I had to stretch the movie gauntlets over
Axel continues the white washing of King Grayskull box art. Is he hinting at an Origins release. Possibly packed with Bionatops?
What's with all the schizo posting across threads lately?
Just got back. Anons please do yourselves a favor and stay offline so the end credits don’t get spoiled.
>>11807232I'll be seeing it tomorrow. I'll spit on all of you if you spoil it.
Oh hey, my Mondo Clawful just shipped!
>>11807118new movie, people are paying attention and flocking here. I will not be posting spoilers tomorrow when I see the movie but I can't promise others here won't. Stay offline, anons, see the movie early.
I plan to go out Thursday hunting for the drink Power Sword and maybe the popcorn castle before work. Won't get to see the movie until maybe Monday or Tuesday.
>>11806542
Is it just me or does this look like John Travolta
>>11807308That means ur gay
>>11807308Getting more Nick Cage actually.
>thread on /co/ and /tv/ are complaining Skeletor is too silly. I haven't seen it yet. I hate MCU quips but love cheesy camp I don't know what the fuck weird ass opinions I just read.
>>11807240Take pics so I can move vicariously through you. I cant afford that shit and they look amazing to me.
>>11807347ppl butthurt that based on a cartoon for a toyline skeletor isn't an edgelord
>>11807347people are retarded. once they see the film theyll see the vision.
>>11807347Those people have never watched MOTU before
>>11807346Imagine that.
>>11807347My worry about the movie originally was when Leto got announced as Skeletor I thought that meant he was unlikely to be silly because Leto takes himself too seriously and that meant he'd be a try-hard grimdark version of Skeletor, but the recent clip they put out proved that wrong and I'm excited for the movie again. MotU should be silly.
>>11807347Skeletor has always had silly moments from the 80s to even the 200X show. Those people have no fucking clue.
>>11807347I am a bit worried after hearing Pixel Dan's initial review (he seemed to be holding back a lot of mixed thoughts), and Jeremy Jahns review (~80% of the time I agree with him).My cope is that I hope it'll at least be entertaining. And if I don't like the movie, then at least I have plenty to enjoy from the cartoons, comics, and toys.
>>11807347It's not that Skeletor or other characters are silly. It's that the movie can't help itself, points at them and says "HEY ISN'T THIS GUY SILLY, LOOK HOW SILLY HE IS, LAUGH NOW AND CLAP, RETARDS!"
>>11807570Jeremy liked it though but some of the humor didn't land for him apparently.
>>11807407This. It's MOTU. The source itself has always been silly fun.
>>11807347>>11807539>Skeletor has always had silly moments from the 80s to even the 200X show. Those people have no fucking clue.This 100%. Honestly my main concern with the film is that Skeletor seemed too serious from the trailers. Part of what makes Skeletor a great villain is how campy he is.
>>11806542The Transformers films got worse critic scores the more money the films made. Not necessarily a bad sign.
>>11807305I like Hatter, but I don't know if the guy that got a free early screening should be arguing with a critic lol.
>>11807347hey i just hate black man at arms and hijab teela
>>11807305Hatter's a retard
>>11807821Nah
Here's your core class movie grayskull/snake mountain clamshell playset. And Disco Skeletor even though we haven't gotten this recolor for the CC 200x or origins one. Fuck you Mattel.
>>11807842I like it. I'm not going to buy it, but I like it.
I got Expand-or today. He came incomplete, but I REALLY like him. I wouldn't mind if they gave us an evil Rio Blast or Snout too.
>>11808155I had to contact CS for two of my six figures from their latest same being absolutely a mess including really bad paint jobs and unglued parts. They're very good about trying to help. What's missing in yours, the weapons tray?
>>11807810Hatter is just a hardcore fanboy even when he's not in character. I get echoing the community response to negatives and all as it's part of his character's job. All that matters to Amazon is box office success and sales. If it does middling, they'll probably still do a sequel just for the possibility of getting better results as Amazon wants content people talk about. That Tomorrow War movie with Pratt was so meh, but Amazon promoted the shit out of it and greenlit a sequel fast for something that was just streaming. Amazon will be the deciding factor for MotU, not Mattel
>>118081661 of the extender pieces for the legs. Just waiting for a reply now! Maybe I shouldn't bother though... I love extendar but I hate the plug and play parts, I just extend the neck and torso and call it a day.
Running change fixed teeth chronicles Skeletor is in stock at Amazon, I just got one and have both to compare... If you're a chronicles guy you need this updated version.
>>11808195I bought two Extendar figures, gave one all of the extensions and the other is just a fat armored bastard like Dung Eater from Elden Ring without the shit gimmick. He sits upon the ToG throne talking trash and wanting more food.Btw, does anyone know if the 200X Stratos leg jets are supposed to be glued in? Mine only came with one leg jet and it isn't glued in at all so the other side is just a square gap.
>>11808236>Btw, does anyone know if the 200X Stratos leg jets are supposed to be glued in? Mine only came with one leg jet and it isn't glued in at all so the other side is just a square gap.Definitely glued on mine.
>>11807842>>11807846I was just reading about this and I wondered what some of you guys thought of it. I think it's pretty damn nice from what I've seen so far, and seeing as how I never bought a origins playset I thought this would be a great choice...for core class....sigh. It does look nice though.
>>11808333Great budget option to go along with core. I’ll be getting it for my kid.
>>11807846>söyjak mountain
Apparently Adam and Teela wear these outfits in the movie.
>a reviewer I follow just compared the movie to thor love and thunderit's joever
We've entered the Fortnite timeline.
>>11808498I was just coming here to say that. Bundle on June 6th
>>11808462Teela looks great!! See was that so fucking hard?
>>11808462>>11808463>>11808465Delete these unironically
>>11808554I highly doubt they wear these past a few minutes max. I suppose I'll find out tomorrow when I go myself and take the family to see it. Super excited
>>11808487It's closer to Love and Thunder than it is Ragnarok, but it's still good. Just got out. Blown away.
>>11806197Saw the movie again tonight! Just a single correction, Beast Man DID speak, but it was only in one scene, I had forgotten it. Teela was so hot, I need her to sit on me.
I know what variant figure of Skeletor I want.
>>11808651That's coming in Chronicles scale. Probably SDCC, but it was shown off in Germany or whatever the other week
>>11806162>>11807110Ty. Tempting to do for a more detailed movie He-man in Origins despite the skintone differences>>11799038>>11799040
>>11807842NGL this is awesome and I might buy it.
>>11808667Mr home arcade put the movie gear on an origins buck no problem if that’s more your speed
>>11808691>>11808667
>>11808694>>11808691Maybe. Still debating. Also no one around me has Chronicles He-man at the moment on the peg to pick a good QC armor set. Every Target restocked with fixed light blue Skeletor and Trap Jaw. Ended up buying the Fright Fighter and another Spikor this week to justify the hour drive to civilization to check.
>>11808770Cocksucker. MODS permaban this faggot
>>11808770Do we see the rest if her costume or anyone know what actress it is?
It feels like everyone outside this thread is shitting on the movie. People are entitled to their opinions and criticisms but it sucks when you like something niche and get excited for everyone to be talking about it again.
>>11808805I thought it was fun. It had some childish humour at points, but it's supposed to.The only scene I didn't like was the first gym scene, but the second gym scene was hilarious and I want to see an Origins figure of that.
Can anyne confirm if Gygor was in the movie?
>>11808867>>11808805Most people I talk to seem to like it>>11808771gotta leave this thread until you see the movie
>>11808974Stuffed trophy in snake mountain
>>11808774She's tall and has a masculine face. Probably some wnba reject playing the part.
>>11808774>>11809039the scene looked like either it was entirely AI generated, or shoved in last minute with a greenscreen and a random nobody actress- hence why you couldn't see her face at all.
>>11808770Is anyone even surprised this was the tease. Everyone was expecting it. But I agree. IP ban this edgelord asshole.
>>11807842The inside. comes with bone throne and power sword altar. Also some second level floors like the old playsets. I wonder how easy it;; be to seperate.
>>11809215I really didn't think it would happen based on interviews. Mattel paid BIG BUCKS to DreamWorks for this cameo probably.
>>11808771>>11809215Spoilers are only bannable on boards that have spoiler tags. There's a cam rip of the movie online now so you might want to avoid this thread or social media in general until you get to watch it.
>>11808770Pretty sure that's a black lady.
>watch the RLM review of the first MOTU movie>Rich Evans spends the whole thing complaining about Filmation>"I grew up with the toys and thought He-Man was basically just Conan!">hates Cringer>calls Adam a "weirdo" with a pause where you can tell he's having to actively restrain himself from saying "gay" because that wouldn't fly with their audienceI wonder if he's ever posted here?
>>11808774>>11809039>>11809044It looks like Page Bueckers
>>11808626Sir, this area is concealed carry only.
>>11809515don't worry officer, I haven't jerked off in a movie theater since Incredibles 2.
Orko chads, it's our time!
>>11808805I've seen some of that too, the only thing I will agree with is that much st kids don't know about motu and that maybe a movie isn't exactly the best way to introduce a new generation of kids to franchise. I agree with that idea, but y'know of my kid was younger and she knew of the figures I collected then I think it would help to flesh out eternia and make the figures easier to understand. Kinda hard to get excited about a half naked man and his battles against another half naked man who has a skull for a face. On a totally different note I found this clip from the 80s during the satanic panic about how he man leads to or is devil worship. Haven't watched it yet but I thought one of you might laugh after seeing it.https://youtu.be/gtlNEZqvMhg
>>11808993What a waste
>>11809782It's an Easter Egg not unlike the Infinity Gauntlet being in the vault of Thor 1
So non-spoiler thoughts:Great movie, a lot of fun the whole time. I get giving Skeletor the red eyes to help improve the character's emoting and so forth. Music was excellent. My wife kept saying how much she enjoyed the music and wished they had gone stronger with it once in Eternia to use it more effectively not unlike the '80s Flash Gordon movie. It was sometimes cheesy, it was sometimes serious, yet never got boring. Might consider rewatching it in a few weeks which is rare for us. Thor Love and Thunder suggestions is a disservice to it. I would say this is much closer to Thor 1's fish-out-of-water with bits of Ragnarok and Flash Gordon sprinkled in. Jared Leto was good, Alison Brie was amazing, the Man of He was charming and endearing. Idris did a great performance unlike when he mails it in during the Thor movies. Riverdale Teela was cute and effective, unlike the fears. A lot of design homage of 200X and some mixing of original with that. Battle Cat could have used a little more. Morena Baccarin could have been used a touch more, but still the cast was balanced well. James Purefoy was great despite how little he was in it. The rest of the Evil Warriors underlings didn't get enough lines to really develop beyond their battle moments.Got the drink cup Sword of Power, but they wanted $62.99 plus tax for the Castle as a "popcorn/drink combo" so I blew it off since the manager wouldn't sell it any other way. Found the other color Core Skel-Knights finally at Target and the re-issue of Origins He-Man/Skeletor also at Target. Great day overall.
built my Eternia playset tonight! really not worth the $650 but I'm glad I have the grail here and set up. I've also been reading the prequel novel for the movie>Teela, Daughter of Eternosit seems that playset Eternia being heaven is an idea they're sticking to in this continuity, as Preternia is name dropped during a funeral in the first chapter or so. Also Andra is there. Otherwise it's a good book! It feels like they probably have a whole story bible written out that's a blend of Classics ideas and other sources that is dictating nu-canon/evergreen stuff. We'll probably see more of the movie continuity in the future...
>>11810059>Teela, Daughter of EternosGot that on my watch list if it goes on sale. I figure it's very YA, but sometimes the novel tie-ins are fun for some world building insights. Zodac getting named dropped in the movie with a religious context implied made me curious what the religion/lore behind the series was.
>>11809714Now that the movie has been seen more people I actually am seeing normal posts and reviews and people who enjoyed it. I think I just fell for shitposts. Pic related, not mine. >Kid running around saying Heman has more Power than Jesus with Teela>Christian dude is clearly hot for Teelalol oh boy
Really enjoyed the movie. Now we just wait to see if it can out-earn Mandalorian so we can get a sequel.
>>11800103>Will nano figures catch on?I think they're great. Mattel just needs to do more of them in different themes. They are like a modern design of the old toy soldiers. With them having connecting strip that lock onto studs, they can also double as board game pieces. That's where I see them becoming popular.
>>11808993Oh, that explains why he's not pre-posed.Ok, since we're got an answer on Gygor, how about wrap up on nono figure teased Glup Shitto Squad?>Gygor is stuffed statue>Goat Man is in the movie>Karg seems to be a real character tooWhat's about Pigboy, is he blink-and-you-miss-it easter egg with 5 seconds of screentime that only fans will notice or a real character with non-zero chance of getting an action figure?
>>11810431watch the fucking movie anon
movie is already bombing KWAB
>>11810482Sorry. Im stll not seeing it today. Got twitchy.
$90
>>11810651
>>11810653
>>11810654
>>11810681
>>11810431Uh, he's like, Skeletor's boy servant in the movie.
IT KEEPS GOING DOWN SOMEONE DO SOMETHING
>>11810431Pigboy gets a good 30seconds or so and a line (or squeal)
>>11811012But that's still good
Mondo ships straight from HK and charges a shit ton for international shipping. Make it make sense. Must want to add to the profit margins.
>>11811085>and charges a shit ton for international shipping.Tariffs worked into the shipping and handling?
>>11810651>paywalling the best skeletor variant behind a playsetmaybe if it ends up at ross...
>>11811012This was never going to be reviewed by some reviewers and treated seriously. So expecting validation from strangers just because they have a YT account or blog, and the idiots at RT take them seriously and decide to count them, is just going to bring you heartache, son.
>>11808462>>11808463>>11808465really excellent AI prompting
Just got back from the movie. I honestly enjoyed it more than I thought I would. It's certainly it's own version of masters of the universe. Much how every version changes things a bit. But I think they do a great job making he-man in the modern day environment and respecting the source material. I really hope it gets a sequel to expand this movie universe. Also the theater I went to had a light up skeletor bucket that looks fucking wicked.
>>11811012I liked it. And I'm more interested in what other diehard He-Man fans think than the ignorant masses anyway.
Just found out this is an actual MOTU character. Why can't we get shit like this in Club Grayskull?
>>11811259I just got home myselfIt was fun. Not perfect, but then I never expected it to be. The entire first act was too long and too awkward at partsBut they got the things that counted the most right imo, and at the right times. Honestly, the tone of the movie felt very much like the CGI cartoon to me.
>>11811259How big is the bucket? Could it fit a large? Do you think it was worth it?
>>11811266>>11811223Well my problem is I kinda didn't like the movie. I wanted to be in the minority with that among critics.
>>11811291Fit a large what? Popcorn? I have no idea I am super happy they just gave me a regular bucket and didnt put the popcorn in the head. It fits a chronicles skeletor inside on its side
Also a pic of chronicles skeletor next to it
>>11811300>>11811299Attach a propeller to the top of the bucket and you effectively have a modern skullcopter
>>11811287>Honestly, the tone of the movie felt very much like the CGI cartoon to me.So just as I expected... gay af.
>>11811269Why would you want something so scary and gross when you can have this beautiful and elegant floral He-Man? Clearly you are suffering from a severe soi deficiency. Seek medical evaluation immediately!
>>11811269This would be the worst selling Sketchbook type figure ever at Target if the green head and armor weren't displayed to the side in the packaging. Make him look like generic zombie servant of Skeletor with add-on gear to make different creatures
>>11811354Coral Skeletor is one if the best Skeletor variants ever though. I love the idea of artist figures they just need maybe someone who does badass shit that looks like it's out ofHeavy Metal or something
Today I learned the stars on Sunman's boots let him see through things like Xray vision.
>>11810248it's somehow doing worse than mandalorian
>>11811607Coral red is often marketed to girls. It is often used in girl’s toys, makeup and clothing.
>>11811269All Character Contest runner-ups were great and I'd love then in Origins. Bubblor, Major Header, Gangstor...Where did you get that picture?
>>11810651>>11810653I'm really digging this. Basically makes for a cheap all-in-one compact display if you just want to represent good guys and bad guys on each side.
>>11811777Post 5 demonic bodybuilder skeleton head girl toys
Found this review in the comments section of a youtube video. >This movie was atrocious!! I can’t believe people are saying it captures the spirit of the cartoon, no it doesn’t, it’s captures the memes and T-shirts… the cartoon is unintentionally funny in retrospect, but it was played straight at the time - the characters weren’t sniggering every-time they said Fisto.. every heroic or sincere moment in this was undercut by frat-boy humour, it was like Your Highness! >The show had Orko as comedic relief and Skeletors put downs, that’s it, that’s the only time we should be laughing, we didn’t need Adam finding the sword and the film trying to make us laugh because it looks like he’s humping it - completely wrong approach! Wasted opportunity, waste of 200 million. >D&D flopping, and the fan backlash to love & thunder should’ve be enough of a warning… People are sick of having fantasy worlds interrupted by cynical and ironic, self-aware, Marvel-style humour…. There was an entirely different MOTU movie that could’ve been made, where you put Stratos in it instead of Fisto, that still was lighthearted and with funny moments, but took its world seriously - this felt like when you played with the toys as a kid, and then your older cousin comes over and starts taking the piss out of it all.
I swear, as soon as I buy the Mattel Creations Gray he'll be put on sale the next week. I'm hoping they put him on sale eventually.
Hunter Knight just showed off his custom movie discotor. I thought it was cool.
>>11811664We'll have to see how it endures over the next few weeks. If it bombs it will end up on prime by next month.
>>11812340Awesome.
>>11812283I haven't seen the movie yet and I am tired of irony poisoning and stopped watching the entire MCU when Black Panther came out because I was tired of it back then. But I think it might have lead to some sort of derangement syndrome where they are seeing it where it may not be. Again I haven't seen it myself yet do I may be wrong. But I've seen people say its faithful and people say it's too ironic which is weird.
>>11812367Also I never actually watched anything but 200x, the 80s Christmas special because it used to air on Christmas time in the 2000s here for some reason, and Kevin Smith's awful bullshit so I dont even fucking know what the 80s one was like.
>>11812283nah he is spittin', this movie was kind of ass. I really didn't want it to be.
>>11812283I can't understand why some people can't get that this is a version of motu. Every iteration is a version of motu. They are ALL different. This isn't a live action version of the filmation version and for fucks sake there are more fucking versions of motu than the goddamn filmation version. Ther is filmation, NA, 200X, revelations/revolutions, CGI, rhe 80s movie, and numerous comic versions and they are all diffrent from each other. Getting mad because this isn't muh filmation is a tourist take. I know given time this will be a cult classic up there with the first motu movie. I really hope it does well enough to get a sequel. On the toy front busted out my movie battle cat and its the best battle cat yet. It fits the mondo He-man pretty good.
>>11812283That poster is retarded and has never seen an episode of the cartoon in his life. For fuck's sake people if Critical Drinker of all people can sing praises of this movie and articulate precisely why its good then that's the end of the discussion.
>>11811781From the artists IG I saw on my feed.>https://www.instagram.com/p/DZOL6HwDkU7/?img_index=1
Question about the character Oo-Larr:Did he die? Or is he still around during Prince Adam time as He-Man?Supposedly he fought Skeletor right before the twins were born.
>>11812569This is classics Scott lore you're asking about, so whatever the answer- it will be retarded.
Because no one asked a shitty quality pic of non origins figures for size comparison. Which means 90% of people here dont care about them.
>>11812591I want Mondo so much, but until we move in a year or two I just can't. They look great.
>>11812596It's a great figure. I get money crunches, mainly why I don't have many classic figures. But if you can eventually seing rhem they are really nice ... well so far he-man is. I have their 1/6 teela and id say rhe 1/12 line is better than that one for sure even if she is gorgeous
>>11812645Goddamn phone posting makes me seem more retarded than I am .... which is still alot
>>11812367I've just come back from a screening. The movie punishes the audience. It frequently reaches high highs then rugpulls those moments with the worst of the worst quippy SNL irony humor it can. It's frustrating beyond description. If someone were to have cut all the humor from the film, or atleast 80% of the gags that made it to the final cut, the movie would have easily jumped upto an 11/10. It gets so much right yet goes out of its way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. As it is, I can only really give it a 6/10. If you arent irked by marvel humor you will probably enjoy it considerably more than I did, but what was delivered is a C-. There's more I'd love to say but I dont want to spoil anyone.
Can some one post thise prototype motu dolls? I tried to find them on my own but haven't had any luck.
>>11812757I haven't heard of those? I could've sworn there were some She-Ra dolls that went unmade but idk anything else?
>>11812647Delicious thighs
So the movie is a huge bomb. Is the brand dead for good now or nah?I think they should've done the Grayskull script at WB when it was supposed to come out back in 2008 in order foe it to be a hit, now it was way too late
>>11812899>$200 million budgetYikesI wish they didn't have the post credit scenesThis is a one and done lads, I hope Wildwood will be a hit so Knight can get more projects from Hollywood.
>>11812899>So the movie is a huge bomb. Is the brand dead for good now or nah?Of course it bombed. Mattel knew it would. The only people that care about the franchise are 50 year old men, and they don't go to theaters.
>>11812754As soon as I have the Blu-ray to rip I hope to do exactly this. Expect an internet archive link in like 6 months.
We live in a world where the fast and the furious gets multiple sequels but masters of the universe bombs.
>>11813057>I've come here to kick ass and watch good movies... and I'm all out of good movies.
>>11813057I don't think that's a fair comparison
>>11812899so long as the toys sell well that's all matty cares about >>11813057It's just too high concept. I'm sorry modern audiences are retarded.
>>11812899No, the brand is still good. My enjoyment of it is unrelated to the movie.>>11812977>$200 million budgetOh my gosh! How? How??? Where did that money go?I will watch it this month sometime. I've gone to the movies almost every week 5 weeks in a row. The competition during the past couple weeks is pretty brutal. I wish this came out later in June.
>>11812754Yeah the dialogue script writer really dropped the ball. It’s like they were determined to not take this seriously at all. I don’t blame the actors though.
It’s the brain dead masses, they see a film have below at 75% rating and get gun shy but gladly go see a 20% movie that had maybe 7 good jokes.
>>11813045I cant thank you enough for the undertaking. Such a shame things had to turn out this way.>>11813057The very people who worked on this movie sabotaged it. Had it been more self confident and unapologetic about it's fantasy elements it'd have won the hearts of millions. Instead it's like an entire movie's worth of bumblebee piss takes.
>>11812899I'd say so. Mattel will likely make an effort to coast off the dwindling middle aged vintage fan audience for atleast the next decade, After that? Kaput. It was a pleasure to be a master of the universe alongside you all. Cant say we didnt go out with a bang.Ditto on Grayskull btw. While I'm not offput by this movie's campier elements, I just know an edgy take on He-man circa 2008 would have had much stronger legs. There's moments in this movie where they tease a much more competent He-man before shirking away from delivering it. It's no surprise those are some of the more memorable parts of the picture.
>>11813039Ackshully 50 year old men are the only guys going to watch this in theaters, that's the entire problem. Fans under 40 are the rare exception.>>11813098I want to believe the toys will sell well but I just dont think they will. BTW if anyone wants to pick up some apparrel cheap, boxlunch already reduced all their MOTU gear down 40%.
>>11813138The actors honestly won me over at several points in the movie. It's the minute those stupid jokes leave their lips that all their excellent efforts are dashed and the entire facade falls to pieces. We were a cunt hair away from true excellence.
>>11813177its really not even thatthis franchise just has not been relevant since the 80s, zoomers only know skeletor and the hey-ya memes, kids don't know even thattruthfully for this movie to have been successful it needed to either come out 20 years ago or have 2-3 cartoons on cable in the 2 decades since to keep it fresh on people's minds, as is their audience is mostly 40-50 year olds, and they spent way too fucking much on the budget for an audience that limited
>>11813235This. The actors did better than expected. But the cringe dialogue by writers kept fucking over the movie experience.
>>11812977I can live with them, all teases were as obvious as Skeletor declaring he'll be back in the old movie. None of new characters werei in sny way unique in their interpretation that made me want to see more of that specific version.>>11813138I wouldnt mind jokes if they were actually that funny. At least early MCU movies had decent enough gags to feel like they were worth it Here we get Fisto and Dian going "Sword looks smaller than. I thought""That's because my hand is so big""You're holding it in your other hand""My other hand is pretty big too."
I think the biggest offender was Adam. He's not big macho tough guy, ok, that's fine. But he's written like a dumb manchild like something I'd expect from Orko. Constantly telling people he's from another planet and not expecting them to think he's crazy? Calling people over and over by nicknames he gave them as kid instead of learning their names? Not knowing what fisting means? And let's not get me started on final gag in the movie, that was just making him way too stupid just for the sake of the reference
>>11813232>I want to believe the toys will sell well but I just dont think they will.The Core line is flying off the shelves. It's estimated to sell 1.5 to 3 million figures in the next 12 months, whereas Origins is estimated to sell only 300k to 500k figures in that same time frame.Core is a massive hit, which is what matters. Parents are buying them up for their kids. So it doesn't matter if the movie bombs... Mattel wins anyway because they brought in some new fans. That was the real goal with this movie. And whatever money the film loses will easily be made up for with merchandise sales.
>>11812899Keep going to see it
>>11813283The jokes at Adam's expense are the most egregious. His character already starts off at the lowest possible point. For the sake of establishing his position in his journey, I can understand depicting him as a down on his luck loser for the first 20 minutes of the film. Once they're on Eternia? The jokes should have ended. The moment he becomes He-man for the first time? That was the point of no return. They had the audience by the balls and they insisted on characterizing him like a buffoon. The transformation should be the mark of the rising action. Instead they just keep hamfisting the same stupid quips. It ruins alot of the great moments in the middle if the movie. Also the entire gag about the cast's names being made up by kid Adam? Utterly retarded. The constant haha fisto sex joke line made me groan. Frankly the heroic warriors only really got to shine in the opening fight and the jail scene, and even the jail scene was a bit burdened by awkward humor.
RLM liked it. If they can destroy Star Wars, they can save MOTU.
>>11813325Do they say all the real names after Adam gets back to Eternia?
So, were more of these guys supposed to appear and they just ran out of budget? Or did Travis Knight literally just put a single one in as a cameo - because that seems like a bit of an odd choice. There is literally a blink and you miss is shot of Fisto fisting one to death, but that's it.Also yeah absolutely loved the film. Definitely the funnest film I've seen in years. After it was over I saw some kid was saying to his dad "THAT WAS THE BEST FILM I'VE EVER SEEN" and his dad clearly did not give a single fuck lol. But the little boy in me totally agreed with the kid.>>11813271That was hilarious and you have bad taste.
>>11813338I've watched the film twice now and didn't clock that. Nice. I'm really curious what will be in the art book.
>>11812341>If it bombsIt bombed. It was under 30Mil in the US and under 54Mil worldwide. That's atrocious for a 200Mil budget. This thing won't make more than 200-215Mil Worldwide by the end of its run. With the budget as high as it was, the break even point is like what? 400-500Mil?
Is the one chick who pushed Adam as a kid and later is with the Heroic Warriors, a character from any of the lore?
>>11812977Tbf you don't know if a film's flopped until its second week. You really need to see what the dropoff is.Titanic made less than $30 million on its opening weekend. (Not that I think MOTU will do anything close to Titanic numbers, just saying it has potential for staying power given it got good reviews and also it genuinely vibes with young boys and the summer holidays are coming up).
>>11813381newspaper comic strip
>>11813409Wow, now that's a pull.
>>11813411Between her, pigboy, Skeletor's governor's(?), karg, goatman, and technically gygor, it's a fun cast of glup shittos. I just hope they all get proper origins figures. Gwildor also cameos in the end credits as a silhouette.
>>11813427>Skeletor's hoverbots*
>>11813387Not when the opening is as awful as this was and there is steep competition the rest of the summer. It's a different movie market than when Titanic was out.
>>11813409>Lieutenant Dian
>>11813387Even if by some miracle there as zero drop off in the 2nd weekend both domestic and international, there is no way this movie makes it to 400million or so to just break even.
What if the film is a hit on prime video? Could this greenlit a sequel? Voltron is going strsight to streaming next year and it has a similar budget to MotU (and its also comedic and accurate to cartoon).I'm dissapointed to see it flop because I loved it so much
>>11813437kek>>11813436we're at 55mil in the box office now. not sure where break even is, but that's still not bad for opening weekend, no?>>11813427I'm sad that Saurod or Blade couldn't make it, it's also funny how each reboot has been grabbing Z-listers or genderbend fucking Ram Man to get a couple more w*men into the cast. What's next? Bringing back Ileena?
>>11813448>we're at 55mil in the box office now. not sure where break even is, but that's still not bad for opening weekend, no?Awful. Breakeven is usually 2-2.5x the budget. So probably around half a billion. Even if this does incredible Prime streaming numbers, it'd have to make up the difference after the box office total.
>>11813381>>11813409Random female warriors joins heroic warriors, wears Royal Guard armor at the end, based on soldier from old motu comic. They're really replacing Andra already, huh?>>11813338They were present in final fight but it you have to pay attention to background. One briefly flies on screen when Fisto punches trough it before he gets his gag with Ram Man.
>>11813453If Rings of Power can get to season 5 so can motu 2 and 3 happen, probably on a lower budget thoOr maybe they make a live action show continuation of MotU movie? Like they did with stargate?
>>11813352I find it funny that Ram Man and others obect that those arent their real names buta) movie never tells what they're really called basically signaling you to accept the nicknames.b) Skeletor and Evil-Lyn really use those names.
>>11813337All their "real" names were invented by kid Adam because he couldnt remember their actual names. By the end of the film he manages to win them over, so they embrace their new monickers, but it just makes for so much unneccessary fiction. Sort of related, Femboto is just as cunty as you'd expect her to be. It gave me alot of Solo whiplash. Easily could have been the bumblebee of the movie had a guy voiced her and the dialogue were improved. Instead she's played off as rosie the robot with guns.
>>11813352I wrote that post before the movie premired, I still had hope then. Now it's very obvious it will sink to the bottom like a lead weight. If we manage to outgross mando it will be a miracle but even that seems to be too high a benchmark to strive for. At the very least we wont be abused with a shitty She-ra prime series.
>>11813381>>11813409She was such a cunt in the film. Whenever she showed up on screen I found myself thinking "It would have been cool to see Man-E-Faces".
>>11813427I'm still annoyed Gygor was a taxidermied beast and not a realy background character. I recognize he's the glup shittiest of glup shittos but I'd have really loved to have seen him. Bjornson did a bang up job as Goat-Man in anycase. Really cant think of any duds in the cast besides Adam's bitchy boss and his ugly brown room mate. That room mate character just reminded me of the equally annoying fat brown friend tom holland's spiderman pals around with.
>>11813436Besides Minions and maybe Toy Story, MOTU doesnt have that much competition. Many are arguing Scary Movie is stealing it's thunder but I get the sense those were two seperate audiences regardless. If it can pick up steam in the next week it has a chance to clear 100 million, which means it would still be a bomb, but it will have atleast beaten mando.
>>11813445Hard to say as that would hinge entirely on online reception and toy sales. Voltron is the more perplexing option in this case because it's taken much more of a beating than MOTU did, and besides Cavil playing Alfor, I dont know if it has any legs with people under 40. Hell I'd argue Robotech would have better chances nowadays.
The movie doing well isn't the only factor. They could lose money on production and still consider the movie a success if the merch moves numbers, because the movie is just a commercial for the product. But I fear they're not going to hit the numbers they're looking for with the merch because the age window of people buying the merch is very narrow, it's just the same 30+ year old adult fans buying the products that are alre already within the market. They desperately need to get kids invested in the brand to continue at numbers that can sustain the movie property and I'm just afraid that's a lost cause at this point.
This is the actress playing She-Ra.The name Saliu is found mostly among Muslim people.Maybe they should rename her to She-Had
>>11813485Same here, I'll grab what I can but I just dont think this movie has the reach it needed to grab gen alpha. It's a shame because there's really been a Phantom Menace level push for the film from the tie in side of things. For fuck sake they're selling Skeletor bedding on Amazon right now. They swung for the fences, we can commend them for that much.
>>11813515>They swung for the fencesThey're desperate for new fans. The 50 year old, overweight neckbeards they have for fans are going to be dropping like flies from heart attacks soon.
Finally picked up a vintage Stinkor and an OK Mossman. I cant currently capture it, but when the sun hit mossman he has a sweet sparkle and Stinkor smells still.
>>11813530vintage guys are so kino, nice get
>>11813331>they bust out the toys and call buzz-off bee-man for a solid minutekino
Just got back from the movie and had a lot of fun. It felt very MCU with the dialogue but that generally didn't bother me and most of the jokes landed for. It looked incredible though. Sets and costume design was spot on. Skeletor and Man-At-Arms were the highlights for me and I was very happy that my two favourite characters were paired against each other.My screening was dead though. Only one kid with his mum, a few lads in their 20's and half a dozen 40-50 year olds including myself.
>>11813448>Blade couldn't make it,I think he was there, at least I remember a bald evil guy with no dialogue on one of the fight scenes
>>11813621I swear there was a Blade looking guy in one of the early Man-At-Arms fights.
>>11813626>>11813621really doesn't count to me as Blade unless he gets a scene that really focuses on him fighting He-Man with... well.. blades. Otherwise we've seen plenty of bald goons in MOTU. Same for Mer-Man in the after credits.
>>11813594>half a dozen 40-50 year oldsWere they obese neckbeards?
Man-At-Arms looks retarded as a dark chocolate man with chubby cheeks. He looks like a hamster wearing a helmet. And we're supposed to believe he's the father of a light-skinned Hispanic woman wearing green contact lenses. Ridiculous! The movie was clearly made for 9 year olds, or adults with the intelligence of a 9 year old.
>>11813666Your bait is obvious and you are retarded. Everyone who actually likes this franchise knows Teela is his adopted daughter you low IQ faggot.
>>11813660Surprisingly not a single one.>>11813659I'd have to watch it again but the guy I'm thinking of had a sword and eyepatch. Definitely wasn't focused on though, so it's unlikely to actually be Blade.
>>11813668>Teela is his adopted daughterThe movie has a completely different backstory than the cartoons. I watched it on DailyMotion, so I couldn't make out everything that was said, but I don't believe there was any mention of Teela being adopted, but I could be wrong. But even if she was adopted... well, that would be even more ridiculous because they didn't have contraception, nor did they have age of consent laws during the collapse of Eternia... so you know perfectly well that Duncan would've found Teela's meaty ass irresistible and got her knocked up at the tender age of 12.
>>11813510She's an Aussie model, she looks white as shit in the costume pics, and she's a god damn placeholder until an actual actress is cast in the role. Likely Samara Weaving
>>11813465>Skeletor and Evil-Lyn really use those names.Skeletor: What's his name?Evil-Lyn: Moss... uhh.. Man... (shrugs)
>>11813694I hate to break it to you anon, but most (everyone except you and creeps) people who raise a person from a baby to their teen years don’t find that child attractive.
>>11813724At one time my wish cast was Peyton List, but evil/emotionally messed up is a key part of her range as an actress, and the rando soldier called her "Force Captain Adora" not "Despara", so I suppose they wouldn't be doing the evil element.
>>11813530I actually thought when the Masters broke out of prison and started coughing that Stinkor was about to appear.
>>11813734God dammit that would have been so fun. The more I mull over the movie I run into thoughts just like that.
>>11813594I cant get over what a brilliant rivalry they cooked up between these two. It really impressed me. Idris at Arms had more legs than I'd ever thought he would.
>>11813724Samara Weaving is too old for the role. She's 34. She-Ra should be played by someone half her age.
>>11813476Kids never showed up for MOTU anyway, so Toy Story and Minions shouldn't factor in too much. Teens are seeing Obsession, Backrooms and Scary Movie. But it's the older crowd that primarily saw MOTU. Barely anyone went this week so word of mouth won't be much of a factor after such a low opening weekend. Then Disclosure Day next week will be fighting for attention of the same 30s-50s crowd that primarily saw MOTUMando is still considered a light bomb and not a total disappointment, and that opened over 3x higher than MOTU did (only counting the 3 day weekend). There really doesn't seem to be any hope at all for MOTU now.
>>11813732That makes sense. I'd imagine that once you you wipe a kid's ass, it's difficult to see that ass as anything other than a turd factory... no matter how fine of an ass it may become.
When are they going to announce "final scene" Roboto with the clear chest for the Cronicles line? so far he only exists on the Originis line.
>>11813732>>11813790Thus Skeletor was foiled again
>>11813472>Really cant think of any duds in the cast besides Adam's bitchy boss and his ugly brown room mateThat's the point though, they exist to show how being on earth is hell for Adam. Telling the sexless nigger creature off is the start of his arc of self-assertion.
>>11813803It's odd the movie version has the correct upper red legs
What if Mattel is so disappointed by the movie's performance that they cancel MotU with the last 7 vintage figures not remade in Origins?
>>11813409Looks damn hot in her uniform, need a fig with accurate hips.
>>11807116Closeup. I really hope this months release is Origins KG for CG members. Axel been going out of his way to edit all his box and card art appearances.
>>11813818Amazon fronted most of the budget. Mattel has been happy enough with MOTU figure sales before the movie so they should be happy enough with sales after the movie and the awareness bump it's giving the brand
>>11813807>I'll just have Evil-Lyn wipe the child's ass and we're good to go!
>>11813863>https://variety.com/2026/film/box-office/box-office-scary-movie-franchise-best-opening-masters-of-the-universe-flops-1236765638/ “Masters of the Universe” is based on the Mattel action figure known as He-Man and marks the toy company’s second theatrical film after “Barbie.” Inaugural crowds were 66% male and nearly 40% were above the age of 45 — meaning that mostly fans of the ’80s toy and cartoon showed up. So “Masters of the Universe” will need to cater to broader audiences in the coming weeks in order to become profitable in its theatrical run.In a statement, Amazon MGM’s domestic distribution chief, Kevin Wilson, repeated a similar sentiment about using a different barometer for success than rivals.“[Director] Travis Knight and the entire cast and filmmaking team have delivered something truly special, and this opening is exactly the kind of critical first moment that validates our holistic distribution strategy—building awareness and engagement that will carry well beyond the theatrical window.”
>>11813916What are you trying to point out? It seems like the same points about the film bombing, just put much more delicately since it's quotes from the people who made it.
the slime pit is fun
Regal's movie shop has the drink cup Sword of Power up for pre-order. $40, ships in October. A good deal if you missed getting one.
>>11813957thanks for the headsup
>>11813818Besides Two-Bad who are the last 6 vintage figures ?
>>11813961Was Merman almost in the movie or is that AI?
>>11813788We live in the darkest timeline
>>11813808Good point. Honestly makes the Eternians stand out all the more
>>11813989Background of a credit scene. The director asked the prop team to work something up so that he got something besides the floor illustration
>>11813989He's a background extra in post credit scene. Apparently Knight loved Mer-Man and wished he could fit him into the movie so costume department did him a solid.>>11813966Bunch of last year guys: Gwildor, Blade, Saurod, Laser Light Skeletor, Rotar, Twistoid. You can add the two giants.
I guess as always, everyone will love Evil Warriors. They looked cool in the movie and besides Skeletor and Evil-Lyn had almost no dialogue so no bad quips. While former two had some of the better gags.
>>11813992It'll be fine. A box office bomb with good reception from critics and audience is almost as good as a smash hit because of the PR value. "Beloved cult classic!" Plenty of franchises have run with results like that.I'm sure they weren't quite anticipating a repeat of Barbenheimer, though doubtless they hoped.
>>11814038>Plenty of franchises have run with results like thatWhich? I can't recall any first film in a prospective franchise that have only made it to half of their break even point (let's face it, this will struggle to get to even 250M) when they were expensive as this was and kept on making films.
>>11814038Yeah well you know what is already a cult classic?The 1987 movie!This isn't going to benefit us.
>>11814041Like every horror franchise, for one. I don't know that it'll lead to dozens of sequels of equal or greater budget but I suspect it won't get buried.>>11814042I don't know that MOTU 1987 is that well regarded...
I think Leto Skeletor is my favorite versionAnyone else?
>>11814041D&D
Not surprised they don't give Voltron a theatrical release even though it also has a big budget (close to $200 million like MotU) and the tone is also said to be more funnyIt also has Henry Cavill who is box office poison (just wait to see how Highlander will bomb).
New>>11814184>>11814184>>11814184
>>11814094He's definitely up there.His last joke cemented him for me, after he fafo'ed>You want to talk? Ok, what do you wanna talk about?
>>11814035I liked how in the big fight, you kinda got a read for theire personalities just by how they handled themselves in the battle>Goat Man came off as the imposing bully, he's the one He-Man couldn't slap around until it was 1v1>Spikor was the incompetent goof, getting stuck in walls and ceilings>Tri-klops was the cool collected guy, keeping his distance where he could...fight smarter not harder >Karg seemed like a manic little attack dog, rushing in headfirst before anyone else and doing flying body tackles when he's clearly outmatched
>>11814324Yeah, for characters who don't talk, they got to be pretty distinct (maybe Trap Jaw and Goat Man are a bit similar) They even managed to make Karg funIn fact, they might be more distinct than Mekaneck, Ram Man and Fistoa are.
>>11814072>I don't know that MOTU 1987 is that well regarded...That's what makes it a cult classic, dummy
